The REAL Colorado Rockies


Sunset over the Rockies - click photo for larger view

Everyone knows that Colorado is a very scenic and picturesque place. Living along the Front Range where the prairies meet the mountains give many opportunities to enjoy the views nature gives us. The majestic Rocky Mountains always give an amazing backdrop the the sunsets, and often the clouds moving over them add to the display. The picture above was taken from my front porch.

One nice thing is that here in the Denver area, it is always easy to get your directional bearings. Look for the mountains; that is west. from that, you know all the other directions. Quite a handy navigational aid that is always there.
